I agree with what you're saying.

I think what most people are frustrated about with the frontend ecosystem (And many other areas of software) is actually misuse of tools.

I just migrated one of the gaming groups that I'm part of to signal and it works well. if someone pings me on whatsapp i ask them to install signal and some people actually did.

but like others said, i still have whatsapp - i just open it rarely.
At least here in Europe where I live, food delivery apps work really well. Never had any problems.
It also suffers from rapidgate and coldgate both.

Either the battery heats up too much during driving to accept proper charge (no thermal management). Or it's too cold to accept charge (no heating).
> The best way to learn a language is through mimicry, immersion, and repetition as you're surrouned by people who only speak that language, who are also friendly, forgiving, and willing to talk to you. Like, children surrounded by their parents, then friends, then friends and teachers.

Those people must also be willing to correct you when you make a mistake, which is socially much harder as an adult.
Current peak demand in cars is limited by roads, and ... always will be. (Hence Musk trying to dig tunnels for more roads.)

Which might be okay if throughput is kept high, and folks can read/eat/sleep while ij traffic.
The web page for this project refers to Altman as the President of YC, but that's a role he hasn't had for quite some time; how up-to-date is this website?
I have 3 (!) groups that haven't moved because of 1 person out of 5 or so that refuses and has a "I have nothing to hide, I don't mind targeted ads."-attitude (and tbh a majority of people that care just a little bit). The network effect is strong. It's annoying. I ask them to use another (almost exact copy of an) app, they ask me to share my address book (among others) with FaceBook (probably also among others).
The size comparison here only concerns the size of index. That is the size of the data is excluded.

We know for certain is that every exponential progress humans achieves will stop at some point. We saw exponential energy progress in the first half of 20'th century, many assumed that would just continue and everyone would have flying cars today but it stopped dead in its tracks and the energy quantities we have available today is mostly the same that we had 50 years ago.
Machine Programming: What if computers would program themselves?
I need a new car but I am put off by the range and charging infrastructure of EV. I haven’t looked into it properly yet but I’m surprised there’s not much more good hybrid cars on the market, sounds like a great compromise on the paper. What’s the catch?
It's always a pleasure though! :) I certainly learn a lot from y'all.

I should say, I freely acknowledge I don't have all the answers - clueless in some cases even, to borrow a turn of phrase. I find crypto fascinating, like many folks, from a technical perspective. I remain unconvinced about it's practical real-world applications.
How Far Has Technology Disrupted the Legal World?
I don't like that OP is using Arxiv to upload his course material.

Arxiv is supposed to be a pre-print scientific publication server. A place to post your nearly finished or ideally submitted journal or conference manuscript so you can reference it while it is being reviewed.

The purpose of Arxiv is in itself a patch for a too common, too long in duration publication process. Now it is often the first place to publish ML research and an obligatory source of literature in ML. No peer-review or any quality assurance makes for dubious work appearing there that can waste a lot of research time.

Hosting your elementary course there because that's where the researchers are, muddies the quality of work on Arxiv further.
Correction: DAI is not an algorithmic stablecoin. It's backed by collateral of multiple different assets.

Not sure where you're from, but most Western countries have no legal basis to detain people leaving their homes just because they're not vaccinated. There might be some restrictions like air travel though.
Even if there is no reduced spread, reducing load on hospitals has got to be a good thing. That’s assuming the vaccine doesn’t increase spread (where I’m assuming a reduced likelihood of symptoms)..

> that simply isn't the attacker model most people have: they want the people they are talking to to not have their real phone number / real email address, and couldn't care less if Telegram or Snapchat or Google or even Facebook knows who they are taking to

Are you sure you're not extrapolating from your needs to that of "most people"?

I don't doubt that there are people for who need anonymous communication (whether just sender-anonymous or sender-anonymous, recipient-pseudonymous). But so far, I've never had the need for it.

Quite the opposite, actually: I wouldn't want to receive anonymous messages on Signal, at least not without opt-in.
It's the same for me, lots of people came over, but not everyone (especially large groups). WA is particularly entrenched in the Netherlands, so it's difficult to get to the point where you can completely remove the app.

But I still consider what's happened so far a major win. Breaking the monopoly WA has on text messaging is important.
Yes, i'd guess a simple message might start at around 1kB and in a chat application you probably never exceed 2kB.
Considering the massive amount of data i can store on even the cheapest smart phone, the available bandwidth even under bad conditions,
i'd say, that's a totally acceptable size.
It could be less for sure, but it's not bad.

And it's plain text, so storage is not even a problem, it's easily compressed!

Now, don't let me compare 1kB data download to visiting a website and all the crapload i download for the simplest webpage nowadays...
Still we use weather forecast when we decide to make plans tomorrow. The best way to predict wether we can make plans (summer holidays, festivals, etc.) should involve some combination of the vaccination percentage and epidemological models.
The index does not store the data at all, it store slopes.

You start by sorting the data, make a piecewise linear interpolation, and you store each slope as triplet (key, slope, intercept) with key being the smallest value in the piecewise interpolation.

I find it quite clever to be honest.

I am not sure how it works on inserts and delete, didn't read the whole paper.

If it is indeed abuse related (whether there was any abuse or Google's algorithm just decided there was some abuse) then telling the abuser what got them banned is counterproductive from Google's PoV. Same reason reddit does vote fudging.

Back in the day when Google had "don't be evil" as their motto, they released something called GTalk. It was a desktop instant messaging app, because that was before the smartphone era.

They based it on the decentralized protocol Jabber (or XMPP) and even open their servers to others. Meaning you could discuss with people using other servers than GTalk, just like email.

Google closed their servers to federalization, rebranded GTalk to Hangout and made bad decision after bad decision (but always in the direction of closing up instead of supporting open standards), lost the fight for messaging despite controlling the dominant mobile OS.

tl;dr I have no faith in Google to (1) do the right thing for open standards and (2) manage to get any sort of market share on messaging

In my opinion, gaming is a very niche industry. I mean not everyone takes gaming as serious as they would consider E-commerce or Fintech industries. However, I think that in an undying quest to create games that make a mark, developers/creators forget to focus on the gamer engagement bit of it.

Don't worry, I made the same mistake and now when I am working on correcting it, I discovered a goldmine, that is helping me to strategize the management aspect of my real money games to a great extent.

I'd like to share it with you guys as well. So, that no one misses out on the goodness you can do by just improving your got-to-market strategy tad bit.

Here's the goldmine to gamers'/players' engagement: https://webengage.com/resource/ebook/the-gaming-master-pack/

I really hope this makes the difference to you in the way it made to me.
One-ness is a physical property and that's why we can see it. The magic happens when we call them all one, give it a symbol, and make them all equal. Now "one" has a unique existence of its own on a piece of paper on a mathematicians desk, scribbled alongside other unique symbols, whose relationships come complete with proofs. And the only question then is whether what was scribbled says something true, as in, something that aligns with the reality it came from, because that would make it useful.

Math is a map. Maps are only real insofar as being a map, and only useful insofar as being true.

The drawing of the streets may be drawn with your pencil from memory, but the truth your friend relies on to get them where they need to go is real. The paper and pencil are real. And the physics of the informative truth that transcends from the streets to the paper is also real. Computers are the machines we've built based on the physics of logic, abstraction, and meaning. A computational value is something that means something to something else.
But those are needed for L5 anyway, Lidar or noLidar. The big issue is the world model, what's the prior when uncertainty rises, how to spot really out of ordinary stuff, and how to spot really ordinary-looking but dangerous stuff.
Yes, in principle it looks very similar to MakerDAO but I think some details are different.

For example DAI is pegged to one USD to make it as useful as possible but "The Reserve token will initially have a target value of $1.00, but is designed to go off of the peg from the US dollar in the long term.".
Explain ReactJS Lifecycle of Components
Dual licensing requires copyright assignment, largely preventing a community of contributors forming around the software (nobody wants to provide free labor to somebody else's get rich quick scheme), which is one of the big advantages of OSS in the first place.

In a way, dual licensing is essentially proprietary software, with a for free version that you hope will satisfy as few users as possible. A bit like the old shareware days.

Dual licensing also creates the perverse incentive of trying to scare your potential customers how horrible copyleft licensing is. So if you motivation is to increase the amount of FOSS through copyleft licensing, you're shooting yourself in the foot.

See https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2020/jan/06/copyleft-equality...
Just regulate “stable” coins would be a good start.
On startup, the Android app asked for my email credentials. There's no way I'm going to trust anyone aside from the mail provider with those credentials.
Efficiency is the opposite of robustness. Autocracies always appear stable until suddenly they don't anymore and break apart or fail in some other way. While democracies seem inefficient and at times quite volatile, they are significantly more robust and can adapt better to changes down the road.

Modern China, so far, has only really experienced a fairly homogeneous historical phase, which is one primarily driven by economic growth. They haven't been forced to deal with major societal issues, in my opinion it's simply too early to judge just how robust that government and state is going to be in the long-run.
> That's a complicated definition that I didn't understand. I do see 'the total income is made up of economic profit (earned) plus economic rent (unearned).' So why is my commercial transaction for you to acquire GPLv3-licensed software from me 'unearned'?

The rent is not for the software but for some additional service or hardware that you incur in making it available. As long as you provide some service other than just licensing the software.

As an open source creator, you essentially are giving away your labour to the community as charity. This is done out of free will and is not an obligation. There is no obligation whatsoever to support and provide guarantee either to any user. This distinction is where most open source contributors feel burnt out. As an open source creator, I look as community requests as "feedback" and not something I am obliged to do. When we take payment to provide certain guarantees or services, that is when it enters the realm of services and is not connected to the software at all. Anyone capable can do that. The company publishing the application has an head-start. That is all.

That is the mindset where it works as a public asset, rather than a "source available" or other kind of program.
> small handmade project

Congrats for the work and the front-page, though you seem to live in alternative universe. The last time I checked, a project with ~2250 commits, ~30 contributors, a website and dozens of releases is by no means "small".
They're not actually accountable for their actions. History shows this. Fwiw though, I think that stablecoins are pretty much only good for trading pegs and an alternative to international remittances.
He bought WhatsApp when it was already successful. He had deep pockets and regulators didn't do their job, the merger shouldn't have been allowed.
There is nothing like self driving in current regulations, much less 10-15 years ago when people seriously started working on it. So, in your views, even starting working on this stuff should be criminal offense?
You may well be right. But they do offer a single EV!

To be fair you can't be sure that wasn't covid, unless you have come up seronegative. Not every adult gets it bad
Maybe worth noting that spam calls/SMS are primarily a problem in the US.

In the European countries that I've had phone numbers in, these basically don't exist, and my phone number has been part of several data breaches. (That said, I am curious if this is a problem occurring in almost all or almost no other countries!)

As far as I understand, these problems are also in the process of being fixed in the US via caller ID authentication (to enable carrier-level filtering), which seems like the right approach: In the long term, it's more or less futile to keep a phone number out of data breaches or advertiser databases.
While you are correct, many networks connected have in fact an open peering policy: https://www.ams-ix.net/ams/connected-networks
The backing assets appear to be other stablecoins. I wonder what kind of interest they can make that 1) isnt incredibly risky, and 2) is legal in the US where they are based.

That's not a bad idea. Wrap Bitcoin 120 days moving average into a stablecoin. It could probably be done in a decentralized manner similar to MakerDAO/Dai.
The next step is to work on cleaner electricity. While most EU got the message long time ago, eastern bloc countries are much behind. Currently in Poland it is better for the environment to drive a diesel VW Golf than Tesla, as the electricity is produced from brown coal.
I assumed that a bigger page size would incur a worse query performance. You can already see the trend in the figure. So the index size comparison is based on the b+-tree which has a similar query performance with the proposed learned index.
Thanks! That is great to hear. Making writing documentation as frictionless and easy as possible is the primary goal of this project. Happy to welcome you aboard as a sponsor!
It's actually possible the real drop in users (or usage) might be more. Facebook took the front page (the whole effing page) of every news paper in India last week to alleviate fears. It's only comparable to DDG articles if Google also similarly had to put ads about how Google respects privacy because of an Exodus.
> How do you reconcile that belief with the fact that Tesla's embedded developers did not understand the extremely simple concept of write endurance?

Easy: compartmentalization of knowledge. Most software developers I have met have no idea about the storage stuff under their application, they trust the OS and the hardware people to deal with it. I mean, who can blame them in the age of AWS or actual servers where companies simply throw money at any problem and hardware is rotated for something new before write endurance ever becomes an issue And the hardware people probably knew that the OS people would run Linux, but didn't expect logfile spam.
This brings to mind what experiences could we give ourselves that nobody has ever had before...

I've thought a lot about giving myself thermal vision through electrode arrays on my tongue, or hooking a Geiger counter to some vibrating patch. I get really excited by intelligence augmentation and have wondered if I could someday hook a math co-processor into my brain.

I've seen things about adding prehensile tails, and third arms, and virtual telepathy.

The future will have a lot of new adventures, and lots of things that we can't even imagine yet :)
Use another address for this? I think the idea is to leverage email as opposed to depending on a central provider. Doesn't mean you have to use your main email address for it to function.
Not exactly yet. ATT is still at $139 (full package), I am using Hulu and sharing the pass with my family members, while they have netflix and sharing theirs with mine. $10 a month for me is not too bad to watch my fav Star Trek episodes on demand.

They can come full circle with anything they want at this point, worse case scenario I will torrent the hell out of everything and plex it with my nas if I am pushed enough.
And that's counting people who have bothered to get tested. If younger people are getting asymptomatic or minor symptom covid that looks like a cold, then the "true" ifr will be even lower
Boeing 737 Max cleared to fly again 'too early'
Which only means that the customer is of course taking the price into account when buying new cars. As the production costs of electric cars are coming down considerably (manufacturing scaling, battery costs), the prices are coming down and very soon there will be the same margin as with petrol cars. Never mention Tesla, who don't have the problem of compensating their ICE car emissions.
That's how it starts. Then one day you realize you haven't used WhatsApp in months, or you get an new phone and don't think about installing it...

I'm not saying this will happen soon, but it happened in the past several times with products with a strong network effect.

Think about AIM, MSN, Friendster, MySpace...
Yeah hey’s been usable enough, been using it since the early invites. It has some pretty neat features that I can’t find on regular email. Also, I can post my hey email publicly because I can filter it before it goes to my Imbox. But it is kinda slow but I’m hoping it will improve by version 2.0 or 3.0.
Yes, rather a glaring omission. I've just wasted the best part of a day trying-out different fonts on my Mac for IntelliJ, iTerm2 and MacVim. Menlo came close but didn't quite match Monaco for ease of reading paragraph text as well as code. Started with it in 2003 and haven't found anything to match it since.
I have the 9570 i9 and after 2 years had to replace the battery. Coil whine is obnoxious, fans spinning up constantly, headphone jack blew up. It's just shit. Screen is nice tho and generally is fast. Hoping the replacement battery lasts longer now that I have capped the maximum charging to 80% capacity and only have a slow charger via USB-C.

This is no longer really the case. Last year many of the subsidies have been removed.

If anything growth in China has slowed down because of that.

Europe is actually the place that has put the most pressure on companies, because their new regulation required a fleet efficiency that.

China does legitimately want to not have cities be a hellhole to live in and supporting EV made sense. Also because China hopes to be able to export EV, getting into the ICE car game would have been harder.
That's a really good feed-in rate. Average residential usage prices would be around that, Vietnam has quite cheap power.

Elsewhere in the world it's common to only get a fraction for feeding back into the network.
I’m sorry, but how is trading crypto any different, at all, from trading on the stock market today? Just that you need a “digital” wallet? How much of what’s traded on the stock market is really wrapped up in complex instruments that no one but an institutional investor with significant experience can understand?
what i don’t get is why a terms of service violation default response is to lock the whole account down, rather than just restricting the account - for example stopping outbound email or moving to read only mode to limit the damage to people and their businesses.
It's essentially a NoSQL database for small sites where you don't need a full-fledged database. No schemas and migrations.

As mentioned, you can query it using Javascript directly in Node. It is all in-memory, so, it's fast. Takes care of persistence automatically.

Also, since the querying is directly how you would search in an Javascript array, there's no SQL or ORM overhead.

I found it interesting as it seemed very easy to implement and use.

Do you know libkrun? github.com/containers/libkrun

Ok, maybe I should have been more precise:

Authentication already involves an Apple-specific hardware property (i.e. the serial number), demonstrating Apple's dislike for third-party clients.

It would be trivial for them to introduce a more effective means of client attestation (e.g. FairPlay DRM, which is alreadypart of every iOS and macOS device).

I certainly hope I'm wrong about this (I'd love to see a third-party client for iMessage), but I'm pessimistic.
That would probably be a good name for some programming project, I doubt the Name is taken. Then again, we all now Klendathu is riddled with bugs...
Just as a clarification, "Copying is the most common way (and the current .NET way)" is not the case - .NET GC is generational but it does not promote through generations by copying.
